A computer worm is a type of malicious software program whose primary function is to infect other computers while remaining active on infected systems. It is self-replicating and propagates itself to other computers on a network, typically via email or file-sharing platforms. Once on a system, a worm can cause damage by deleting files, corrupting data, or consuming system resources. It can also open backdoors for hackers to gain access to networks and systems.
